Technical Abstract

An image shift control method including generating image position information by using sample data of first image data; and determining a movement direction and a movement amount of an image by using the image position information.

Patent Claims
14 claims

Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. An image shift controller comprising: a first flip flop unit comprising: a first flip flop configured to receive a partial bit of first sample data of first image data; and a plurality of second flip flops configured to receive output signals of a respective preceding one of the first and second flip flops; and a combining unit configured to combine the output signals of the first flip flop and the second flip flops to generate image position information.

2

2. The image shift controller of claim 1 , wherein the output signals of the first and second flip flops respectively have a value of 0 or 1.

3

3. The image shift controller of claim 1 , wherein the partial bit of the first sample data is a least significant bit (LSB) of the first sample data.

4

4. The image shift controller of claim 1 , further comprising: a second flip flop unit comprising a third flip flop configured to receive a partial bit of second sample data, and a plurality of fourth flip flops configured to receive output signals of a respective preceding one of the third and fourth flip flops; a third flip flop unit comprising a fifth flip flop configured to receive a partial bit of third sample data, and a plurality of sixth flip flops configured to receive output signals of a respective preceding one of the fifth and sixth flip flops; and a selecting unit configured to select a signal output from the first flip flop unit, the second flip flop unit, or the third flip flop unit, and configured to output the selected signal as the image position information.

5

5. The image shift controller of claim 4 , wherein the first sample data is red image data, wherein the second sample data is green image data, and wherein the third sample data is blue image data.

6

6. The image shift controller of claim 4 , wherein the selecting unit is configured to receive one or more signals output from the first and second flip flops as a control signal, and is configured to select the signal output from the first flip flop unit, the second flip flop unit, or the third flip flop unit in response to the control signal.

7

7. The image shift controller of claim 1 , further comprising a shift determiner configured to determine a movement direction and a movement amount of an image corresponding to the image position information by using equations or a look-up table (LUT).

8

8. A display device comprising: a display panel; an image shift controller configured to determine a movement direction and a movement amount of an image; an image corrector configured to correct first image data to second image data to reflect the movement direction and the movement amount of the image; and a display driver configured to control the display panel to display the image corresponding to the second image data, wherein the image shift controller comprises: a first flip flop unit comprising: a first flip flop configured to receive a partial bit of first sample data of the first image data; and a plurality of second flip flops configured to receive output signals of a respective preceding one of the first and second flip flops; and a combining unit configured to combine the output signals of the first flip flop and the second flip flops to generate image position information.

9

9. The display device of claim 8 , wherein the output signals of the first and second flip flops respectively have a value of 0 or 1.

10

10. The display device of claim 8 , wherein the partial bit of the first sample data is a least significant bit (LSB) of the first sample data.

11

11. The display device of claim 8 , further comprising: a second flip flop unit comprising a third flip flop configured to receive a partial bit of second sample data, and a plurality of fourth flip flops configured to receive output signals of a respective preceding one of the third and fourth flip flops; a third flip flop unit comprising a fifth flip flop configured to receive a partial bit of third sample data, and a plurality of sixth flip flops configured to receive output signals of a respective preceding one of the fifth and sixth flip flops; and a selecting unit configured to select a signal output from the first flip flop unit, the second flip flop unit, or the third flip flop unit, and configured to output the selected signal as the image position information.

12

12. The display device of claim 11 , wherein the first sample data is red image data, wherein the second sample data is green image data, and wherein the third sample data is blue image data.

13

13. The display device of claim 11 , wherein the selecting unit is configured to receive one or more signals output from the first and second flip flops as a control signal, and is configured to select the signal output from the first flip flop unit, the second flip flop unit, or the third flip flop unit in response to the control signal.

14

14. The display device of claim 8 , further comprising a shift determiner configured to determine a movement direction and a movement amount of the image corresponding to the image position information by using equations or a look-up table (LUT).
